We've picked out some of our favorite puzzle escape games of recent years, all of which are guaranteed to give your brain a very satisfying workout.

The Room

As the game that really kicked off the puzzle escape craze on iPhones and iPads, you can't say you've played the best of the genre until you've lost yourself in Fireproof Games' magnificent puzzler The Room. Using pixel perfect controls, you'll need to toy and tinker with a mysterious box to solve a delicately woven thread of puzzles in this universally acclaimed game.

The true grandfather of exploration puzzle games, realMyst certainly costs more than the average app, but the reward is a fully 3D, revitalized edition of one of gaming's brightest stars. Stranded on a mysterious island, you'll explore creepy clocktowers, time-machines and much, much more as you slowly unweave the story behind this old abandoned land.

Doors & Rooms is one of the best examples we've played of room-by-room escape puzzling. Split into a number of eerily themed chapters, each one will have you scratching your head as you peel back the complex mystery behind your imprisonment. Expect a tougher challenge than usual in this evergreen puzzling favorite, but if you're up to the challenge this game will leave a lasting impression on you.

Like realMyst, Machinarium is more of a exploration puzzle game, rather than the single-screen exploits you'll be familiar with from Escape The Titanic. As well as being gorgeous to look at, Machinarium's also packed with some truly delightful puzzles that will stretch the skills of even veteran puzzle gamers.

If it's variety you crave in your puzzle gaming, then The Heist will keep you entertained for hours. From sliding tile puzzles to visual sudokus, this taxing but satisfying game will have you glued to your touchscreen as you attempt to crack open a super-secure vault. There's even a generous special prize awaiting those who make it through the toughest challenges.
